A gag in which the camera cuts away or is interrupted by a bumper explaining the following scene is too disturbing to see, or, more importantly, would not be allowed by the broadcasting network.
The trope name comes from an episode of Freakazoid! where a cartoon supposedly filmed in "Relax-O-Vision" cut away from scenes that were purportedly too much for the kids to watch to relaxing images like ocean waves or a fish-tank, usually accompanied by the Theme from "A Summer Place"note  This piece is more commonly known as the ubiquitous "peaceful music", and also as the "makeout music" from Animal House or otherwise some form of Muzak. Bonus points if sounds from the disturbing event still can be heard over the image, usually with lots of Noodle Implements thrown in.
See also Battle Discretion Shot, and Discretion Shots in general. Sometimes utilized as a deliberate Offscreen Moment of Awesome. Contrast Screamer Prank. Compare Noodle Incident.

Happens a lot on Everybody Hates Chris. Usually, it is just when Chris is about to do something bad. One example was when Chris was handed a bag of marijuana by a criminal trying to escape the police. His friend Greg suggests they smoke it. A screen then comes up and says that Chris Rock does not endorse the smoking of pot. He instead decides to put it in lasagna.

When Civvie 11 completed The Plutonia Experiment, the ending text states that Hell has gone back to "pounding bad dead folks instead of good live ones." Civvie asks his editor Katie for a pic of a demon banging Adolf Hitler. Katie instead posts a graphic of some cute kittens with the caption "NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO." Civvie concedes.

Parodied in Those Lacking Spines. As Xaldin prepares to castrate Xiggy-kun, the author decides to switch to another scene during the process — preferably something involving kittens. However, they're out of kittens, so they just decide to cut back to the drama going on at Destiny Sanctuary Peak High School Academy Grammar School instead.

Non-animated variation: In the Tarantino/Rodriguez double-feature Grindhouse, both movies ("Planet Terror" and "Death Proof") feature "missing reels" to give them an authentic, old-fashioned feel. However, both missing reels are inserted during apparent sex scenes; given the rest of the content of the movie, it's obviously not really done for censorship purposes so much as purely for the gag. In fact, Planet Terror's missing reel covers up a fairly major plot revelation and comes just toward the end of the sex scene. As the film leads up to the sex scene, it gets more and more heavily scratched until the missing reel, the implication being that the sex scene was played so many times that it fell apart. Tarantino got the idea for "missing reels" after he watched a B-movie that skipped over a plot point due to a missing reel and realized that you could interpret the rest of the movie differently depending on what had happened in the missing footage. This is also a not so subtle nod to the fact that missing reels containing sex scenes were common in "Grindhouse" theaters because the projectionists would steal them for personal use.

Dragon Quest:
The move known in the U.S. as "Puff-Puff" cuts away from the actual "Puff-puff" (which is a somewhat Unusual Euphemism for... ahem, well let's just say that only females normally have the Puff-puff ability...) Some male characters can use it too, but it isn't nearly as pleasant and in fact does damage.
There is a Double Subversion in Dragon Quest VIII. One of the secret places is a sort of brothel, where you can get a "Puff-puff" from one of the girls. There is a black screen, because the character is blindfolded, and we hears sounds of something squishy, but then the screen brightens up, and we just see the girl squishing a couple of slime dolls against the character's head.
As a general rule, you should never trust a strange woman offering "Puff-Puff", as this sort of thing happens in more than one Dragon Quest game, and the result is never pleasant. In Dragon Quest III, the Puff-Puff is administered not by the girl who drags you to her house, but by the girl's extremely manly father, and in Dragon Quest IX, the girl uses a pair of sheeps' butts.

One of the video trailers for Braindead had, for the sake of viewers of a nervous disposition, scenes from the film only on the right side of the screen, on the other side were some pictures of lambs. However, right at the end, one particularly gory moment does fill the whole screen. This can be seen here

Spoofed in the Merrie Melodies short "Cross Country Detours". At one point, the screen splits to show a snarling Gila monster on one side and a cute little girl reciting a nursery rhyme on the other, for those who might find the Gila monster too scary. Eventually, the girl shouts at the Gila monster to shut up, scaring it away.

Dave the Barbarian:
Variation: "And so our heroes defeat the muffin in an exciting battle, which we can't show you because it would be much too expensive for a cheap show like this."
Played straight in the episode where Chuckles takes over the show by enslaving the narrator. He writes a scene where he defeats Dave and his family, but the narrator can't read it because it's "far too violent for a family show". Chuckles makes some adjustments and hands the script back. The narrator okays it, and they cut to the exterior of the castle, as it bounces like crazy and a fierce battle is heard; the narrator's dialogue is somewhere along the lines of "And lo, the Dark Lord Chuckles the Silly Piggy does inflict many vague but presumably unpleasant things on the smelly barbarians."

The Relax-O-Vision gag returned when Freakazoid guest-starred in the Teen Titans Go! episode "Huggbees", first when Freakazoid goes to take a poo while watching movies on Cyborg's cell phone and again when Freakazoid and the Titans go and beat up the Brain's robotic minions, with the scene getting shot up, a robot thrown through it and the entire thing getting burnt up.

In Forbidden City Cop, the protagonist and his wife are attending a picnic while his fellow Cops escort the Emperor when they are attacked by the villains. As the protagonist enjoys himself, his fellow Cops are swiftly and brutally killed. Each time a Cop is killed, the scene shifts to the picnic where something happens that mirrors the way he dies. For example, when the last Cop is killed by having his crotch crushed, the scene immediately shifts to the picnic where the fruit is pulped to make juice.

The original radio version of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (1978) included an interlude during the approach to Magrathea where, supposedly in order to help combat rising stress levels in the galaxy, it was carefully explained to the audience that no one was going to get killed in the ensuing confusion — although one unidentified person would be bruised on the arm. The novelization did this too, as did the television series, the latter of which used posterization and other special effects to obscure the action as the Book explained what was going on. The LP of the radio series includes a twist; listeners who allowed the album to play into the spiral scratch at the end would hear a short audio outtake informing them that it was Arthur whose upper arm was bruised. The same series, of course, includes the famous Peril Sensitive Sunglasses, which help you take a relaxed attitude to danger by going black at the first hint of trouble to prevent your seeing anything that might alarm you. A pair of these glasses were provided as feelies with the text adventure game. They're totally made out of black cardboard.

In Asterix & Obelix: Mission Cleopatra, a voice-over announces that due to the violence of the few next scenes (of Obelix beating up a band of Roman soldiers), a short documentary on crayfish will be shown instead. After a few grainy images and a narrator informing us that the crayfish eats only seafood (contrary to Common Knowledge), the view cuts to the construction site with Roman soldiers flying all over, with very audible punching sounds.

On an episode of Roseanne, D.J. has been spying on Molly with a telescope. Darlene assures Molly she'll take care of it, and at the end of the episode, tells an angry Molly she's put shoe polish on the eye of his telescope so he'll be exposed. Except D.J. comes downstairs, and he looks normal. David, on the other hand, comes down a second later with shoe polish around one of his eyes, and while Molly looks happy, Darlene is pissed. Cut to a card that reads, "DUE TO ITS EXTREMELY GRAPHIC AND VIOLENT NATURE, THE REMAINDER OF THIS SCENE HAS BEEN CENSORED".

Edna & Harvey: Harvey’s New Eyes reflects Lilli's inability to comprehend death by covering dead bodies in pink paint, applied by little potato-shaped gnomes that only she can see. It's generally a thin enough layer to get a good idea of what's just happened, but she never has an option to interact directly with it, and displays absolutely no curiosity about it. (The paint stops appearing later on in the game when the protagonist's illusions begin to break.) Interestingly, no character in the entire game displays the ability to recognize a dead body—it's just that the others convince themselves the dead are still alive, whereas Lilli can't see them at all. Mother Superior even gives an award to a girl who's hung herself out of despair.

Hyperdimension Neptunia Victory:
After the party catches up with and defeats Arfoire, who had kidnapped the children they were looking after, Iris Heart decides she needs to vent her rage on the hapless foe. Cut to a picture of a Super-Deformed Neptune telling the audience to "Please Stand By". When things fade back in, Iris Heart looks extremely satisfied while Arfoire looks traumatized, and the other CPUs discuss how even they had to look away during the moment... right before remembering the five-year-old they rescued, IF, just saw everything and can now barely speak. All Played for Laughs.
The same image shows up during the Good Ending route when Neptune decides to introduce Iris Heart to Uni, Rom, and Ram.

Excel♡Saga:
"The Koshi Rikdo Assassination Plot" substituted scenes of sunsets and seashores for footage of bloody violence — but didn't change the soundtrack, so you got to hear everything that happened.
A similar gag occurs in "Take Back Love!", where random pictures of Puchuus are used to cover up the visuals (but not the sounds) of a non-consensual lesbian sex scene.
Inverted in "Butt Out, Youth", where peaceful music is used to cover the horrible sound of Excel dragging metal claws across a blackboard.
One version of the Puni Puni☆Poemi trailer opened with a short message that they removed anything offensive to anyone so that it could reach "the widest possible audience". The result? A black screen. Remove anything offensive to "most people"? Another black screen. Remove "anything that might get us sued"? We finally get the trailer, with black screens with funny text replacing some scenes. This entire affair is made very funny when you remember that this version appeared on a Milk-chan DVD!

A early Baby Blues comic had Wanda and Darryl talking about going on a vacation for a couple of days, even though Zoe, at that time, was teething. When Wanda talks to Darryl for the second time, the third panel has a title card that says "The sarcastic response in this panel has been judged too graphic for general audiences or the unmarried.", although we do see the top of her speech bubble and the feet of Wanda and Darryl. Afterward, Zoe and Wanda's faces are never seen until the next comic.

Earthworm Jim:
The theme song to the cartoon includes a cut away from Peter Puppy-monster induced ultraviolence to Jim in a hammock accidentally swallowing a butterfly to relaxing music, and then back to the aftermath of said violence.
Another example from the show is when Jim battles a "gigantic, undefeatable army". Cut to a newscaster announcing "Cost of cartoons skyrocketing! Producers seek cheap substitutes for huge action sequences." Cut back to Jim: "What a huge action sequence! I never thought we'd survive!" (Unsurprisingly, this show and the above-mentioned Dave the Barbarian had the same writer, Doug Langdale.)

In a Garfield strip◊, Jon says to Garfield: "If you beg, I'll let you lick my ice cream cone." In the next panel, there's a title card saying: "The cartoonist has elected not to show this panel due to its graphic nature." In the following panel, Garfield has the cone, and Jon has a few scratches and a good deal less hair.

In one of the Nyaruko: Crawling with Love! shorts, Nyarko and Mahiro do the Disney Dog Fight over her pet Shantak...who immediately chooses Mahiro. Nyarko flips out and we get a censor screen by the Space Police over the sounds of violence; when we cut back, Nyarko is panting for breath while snuggling a badly beaten Shantak and cooing about how she's such a good pet for "choosing" her mistress.

Final Fantasy XIV: One of the gathering-based quest chains you can take in Endwalker involves helping a student, T'laqa Tia, with his research into aetherology. The reason he needs assistance is T'laqa Tia is very prone to aether sickness, such that he can't use any of the aether based transportation or teleportation systems the player makes liberal use of. When demonstrating just how bad he has it, the scene is replaced by a screen of himself in a field of flowers looking at a fairy as the dialogue makes very clear he's losing his lunch everywhere.

Freakazoid!:
The Trope Namer. In the titular episode, Freakazoid is seen charging into combat against the villains from his Rogues Gallery, only for Relax-O-Vision to kick in for a few seconds, after which Freakazoid is shown towering victorious over his opponents. As the episode goes on, it becomes obvious that Relax-O-Vision is being used by the writers as a magical and lazy (yet funny) way to resolve the fights without providing any explanation as to how it happened. It culminates in Freakazoid rescuing his girlfriend from his archnemesis in a hilarious and extremely implausible way during a Relax-O-Vision cutaway. It's finally subverted at the end when Relax-O-Vision censors Freakazoid and Steph kissing after the battle ends, and Freakazoid, finally fed up with it, beats up the network censor who introduced it at the beginning of the episode over a final Relax-O-Vision shot (with the carnage playing over the relaxing music).
Another episode (the one with the floaty guy with the rope) had "Scream-O-Vision", where whenever something scary was about to about to happen, a narrator would say, "Scream" and small sound clip of people doing just that played. When it happens when Freakazoid and Steph were about to kiss, he yells at the narrator to knock it off.
The Relax-O-Vision gag returned when Freakazoid guest-starred in the Teen Titans Go! episode "Huggbees", first when Freakazoid goes to take a poo while watching movies on Cyborg's cell phone and again when Freakazoid and the Titans go and beat up the Brain's robotic minions, with the scene getting shot up, a robot thrown through it and the entire thing getting burnt up.

Happens in an episode of Galaxy Angel in which Vanilla discovers she has a secret admirer. During the course of said episode, the rest of the Angels ask her different questions, such as if she knows what a love letter or a romantic relationship is note justified since Vanilla is also an Emotionless Girl , and every time she replies the camera does a close up on her moving lips (without sound) before changing into a picture of a different landscape each time. Then, we're cut back to the other Angels (minus Milfeulle) blushing in embarrassment.

Mon Colle Knights: The Malaysian airing of the show has all appearances of the Star of David censored out note There are two theories as to why- the most prominent is that the Malaysian government, being an Islam majority, had been conditioned by other Islamic nations to hate Israel and support Palestine due to the Gaza Strip crisis, and believes that the Star of David represents Israel. The less prominent theory is that Moral Guardians had simply mistaken it for a pentagram via a cutaway to a totally unrelated scene, which is to say really jarring because the star usually only appears for a split second in many cases, which means the cutaway only lasts a split second before cutting back.

Four Swords Misadventures:
This happens while Red Link is being pummeled by the Cuccos during Episode 4. The screen even displays the words "Relax-O-Vision" superimposed on a field of flowers with a blurb about the scene being unsuitable for those with weak stomachs, perhaps as a Shout-Out to the original Freakazoid "Relax-O-Vision".
In another possible example, Green Link and Red Link are fighting each other, and then the scene cuts to Blue and Purple in a theater, watching a parody of the infamous ant speech from Naruto. When Blue and Purple get back to where the fight was, it's already over.

Azumanga Daioh: Nyamo's drunken sex ed lesson is overlaid with relaxing music and uplifting visuals, such as windchimes, a paper lamp, and the earth with the sun rising in the north, occasionally cutting to the students' embarrassed enthralled faces. An Eye Catch featuring Chiyo and Tadakichi is used as a Vomit Discretion Shot earlier in the series when a drunken Yukari pukes in the street. And the same music plays when Chiyo asks Nyamo for... clarification. Bonus points for the toothbrush-and-cup metaphor.

Subverted in Errant Story, where Meji's early melee with the guards at the Heretic Knowledge Vault (using her familiar Ellis as a melee weapon) goes on behind a relax-o-vision curtain. However, that wasn't out of concern for the sensibilities of the reader; it was because Poe was too lazy to draw the melee scene. (He said so.)

Used in Drakengard 3, where Zero is finishing off Five by stabbing the hell out of her with her sword. The scene switches to a cartoon drawing of a chibified Zero and Five with the text "This content has been deemed inappropriate for pretty much everyone. Please stand by" while the sounds of Five screaming in pain can still be heard.

MarzGurl uses it twice in her review of Fritz the Cat, the first time when the chicken truck driver kills all his chickens with a board with a nail in it, and again when the junkie rabbit beats and (at least implied) rapes his girlfriend.

In X-Men: Days of Future Past, Wolverine got inside the mansion to seek the professor and moved upstairs, ignoring the protests of Hank McCoy. So McCoy turned into the Beast, went after Wolverine, and the camera changed the view to the empty stairs that they had just climbed. Well, they are not empty for very long...

In "I Want to Recycle" on Little Princess, Princess drops a lollipop on the grass after a fly lands on it, but declares she's still going to eat it because to not do so would be wasteful. She tells the narrator, however, that he doesn't have to watch. He replies that he won't and the "camera" pans to a view of a bluebird splashing in a birdbath with relaxing music playing until Princess is all done.

George of the Jungle does this several times. When an extra falls off a bridge suspended several hundred meters over a canyon or George is shot by the Big Bad the narrator quickly interjects with the line, "Whew! Let's all calm down, now. Don't worry, kids, nobody dies in this film, they just get really big boo-boos," before moving to the next scene showing the victim covered in dozens of bandages and casts.

Neptunia:
Hyperdimension Neptunia Victory:
After the party catches up with and defeats Arfoire, who had kidnapped the children they were looking after, Iris Heart decides she needs to vent her rage on the hapless foe. Cut to a picture of a Super-Deformed Neptune telling the audience to "Please Stand By". When things fade back in, Iris Heart looks extremely satisfied while Arfoire looks traumatized, and the other CPUs discuss how even they had to look away during the moment... right before remembering the five-year-old they rescued, IF, just saw everything and can now barely speak. All Played for Laughs.
The same image shows up during the Good Ending route when Neptune decides to introduce Iris Heart to Uni, Rom, and Ram.
Hyperdimension Neptunia: Producing Perfection has an event where the producer walks in on Noire while she's changing. Cue a Super-Deformed Histoire telling us to "Please wait".

Parodied in Runescape as several scenes are cut out and replaced with adorable pictures of kittens.
A Running Gag the Pirate quest series involves scenes being replaced with pictures of kittens to censor horrifying scenes.
In "Rum Deal", several Zombie Swabs will attack the player and attempt to hinder their progress. Should they threaten the zombie, the scene will cut away to a graphic of a cat playing with a ball of yarn, returning with the end of their threat.
In "The Great Brain Robbery", the player needs the help of Dr. Fenkenstrain to operate on some monks whose brains were stolen by zombie pirates. Before the surgeon begins the operation, he asks them to record what he does, for posterity. The scene cuts away to a graphic of a cat playing with a ball of yarn once more. When the scene comes back...
The kitten-intermission pops up yet again in the Pirate quest finale "Pieces of Hate", when the player blows up the entrance to a dungeon on Braindeath Island. Doing this unleashes 'Rum'-pumped Crabs that wreak havoc on the zombie pirates that make up the majority of Captain Rabid Jack's army.
Also present in "Bringing Home The Bacon", where you are tasked with beating the daylights out of someone accused of theft. The screen cuts to a view of a kitten and a piglet, and their absolutely wonderful adventures. You can still hear the thief's cries of pain.

Bugs Bunny:
The cartoon Rabbit Punch ends with Bugs Bunny about to be run over by a train. As the train barrels toward Bugs, the film breaks. Bugs walks onto a blank screen and announces, "Ladies and gentlemen, due to circumstances beyond our control, we are unable to continue with this picture. And, uh, confidentially," he adds, holding up a pair of scissors, "the film didn't exactly break."
Similar ending to the Daffy Duck cartoon My Favorite Duck, where the film breaks while Porky Pig is chasing Daffy Duck with a gun. Daffy then describes the missing action where he fights back against Porky and gains the upper hand, until Porky hits him over the head with his rifle.
Another Daffy Duck cartoon from 1938 called Porky & Daffy has the champ pull down a shade that says "censored" as he beats the hell out of Daffy behind it. When the shade comes back up, Daffy is out cold on the canvas.

Used several times in the A Series of Unfortunate Events series. This is in keeping with the author's persona of reviling the stories he has to write, but appreciating the truth enough to say it anyway. That being said, after avoiding the topic, it's usually written about anyway. Often the narrator keeps talking, but he urges the reader to stop reading.

A slight variation was seen in a sketch on The Whitest Kids U' Know, with Trevor and Timmy Breaking the Fourth Wall by explaining that they couldn't think of the ending to the sketch and instead have a girl take off her top and bounce around "to help DVD sales" because her exposed breasts are censored on television but would be uncensored on the DVD.

Final Fantasy:
Final Fantasy VIII:
The special ability "Devour" cut to a scene of a peaceful meadow with a disclaimer about sensibilities, rather than show the character consume the monster. When the move is successful, a sound bite of something gruesome happening out of sight played.
Selphie's Limit Break "The End" worked with similar visuals; Memetic Mutation by the fans then turned Selphie into a Reality Warper capable of "wishing people into the cornfield".
Final Fantasy XIV: One of the gathering-based quest chains you can take in Endwalker involves helping a student, T'laqa Tia, with his research into aetherology. The reason he needs assistance is T'laqa Tia is very prone to aether sickness, such that he can't use any of the aether based transportation or teleportation systems the player makes liberal use of. When demonstrating just how bad he has it, the scene is replaced by a screen of himself in a field of flowers looking at a fairy as the dialogue makes very clear he's losing his lunch everywhere.

Girly:
Whenever sex is meant to be portrayed, the panel instead shows a scene with the characters involved dancing with happy mammals in a world where everything has an incredibly cute face and sings "Lalalala". It was even done in thought bubbles! Example here.
Subverted in the final battle with the Dickweed Queen, whom Winter and Otra defeat by consummating their heroine/sidekick relationship. The cute censorship animals show up... and prance away singing, trampling the Queen and leaving the sex scene completely uncensored.

Bugs walks onto a blank screen and announces, "Ladies and gentlemen, due to circumstances beyond our control, we are unable to continue with this picture. And, uh, confidentially," he adds, holding up a pair of scissors, "the film didn't exactly break."

TV Tropes:
In the Bloodier and Gorier article, instead of a horrific, gory scene of guts and carnage, there used to be an adorable picture of cute kittens.
Same used to go for Nightmare Face, though it was later replaced with a back shot.

This happens more due to the lack of budget and no post-production than actual Relax-O-Vision in Dogma, in a part cut from a scene, where Azrael shows Bethany exactly what hell's like now that human imagination has made it even worse. A title card is then flashed on the screen: [ten seconds of the most fucked-up imagery to ever be shown in cinema] before cutting back to Azrael hissing, "I'd rather die than go back to that."

El Goonish Shive:
Weaponized in-universe by the immortal known only as Jerry. He has a spell that causes the target to suddenly perceive itself as being in a grassy field surrounded by adorable fluffy animals. It's only been used once so far, but when it was, it reduced a character from an angst-driven rampage to vaguely River Tam-like babbling in seconds.
This also occurs in a Q&A comic regarding whether or not various forms of Voluntary Transformation can heal injuries (answer: no). The answer is given alongside a montage of cute animals.

Monty Python's Flying Circus:
A sketch involving a four-star restaurant in the middle of the jungle cuts out just as bushmen are about to attack the diners. A faux BBC apology plays over the scene, with the announcer describing in rather graphic detail the violence and nudity that will not be shown. In typical Python fashion, they play the 1958 Gardening Club instead...and a few seconds into footage of a formal garden, in run several nude women, the Pantomime Goose, Mister Gumby, and others having a frantic, clumsy orgy.
A variation occurs in another episode. Following the ridiculously violent "Sam Peckinpah's Salad Days" sketch, and the subsequent gunning down of critic Philip Jenkinson in slow motion, the show ends with several minutes of waves crashing against the shore. (With occasional interruption by John Cleese dressed as a Trojan explaining the show was short on time and this was all they had.)

This is used in Yu-Gi-Oh! whenever one character punches another, having the characters out of frame, both in the original footage and the dub. However, it only occurs once or twice in the original, and numerous other times punches are shown on-screen with no cutaways (these on-screen punches are, of course, cut out of the dub), so the couple of occasions where they do use Relax-O-Vision are rather out of place.

For FETCH! with Ruff Ruffman, this was seen in one of the wallpapers for the show, featuring a picture of Ruff in a flower field and the message "We are experiencing technical difficulties." Seen on the show as well, in a few episodes where Ruff would have an off-camera scuffle with someone. This was later recycled for the spin-off Ruff Ruffman: Humble Media Genius as well.

In Captain SNES: The Game Masta, panels are occasionally replaced with an image of the the Nintendo Censorship Angel. Taken a step further when she censored the visual part of a fight that ended in the death of Fat Chocobo in this animated strip. Dialogue and sound effects are still visible, though ironically, the former is uncensored (ie: early on, Porom says "Kick his ass!").

South Park:
The show's portrayal of Mohammed ordering food at a stand was censored by Comedy Central. After much kerfuffle, Comedy Central replaced it with Relax-O-Vision, allowing Matt and Trey to describe the scene and express their feelings about the censorship. (Prior to 9/11, South Park had shown Mohammed uncensored. He appears on a lunchbox uncensored in a 2020 special.)
The daytime broadcasts (and versions seen on OTA TV stations via syndication) of the episode "Red Hot Catholic Love" cut to Relax-o-Vision during scenes where the characters crap out of their mouths. A black screen with text describing the censorship, accompanied by a few seconds of soothing music (and then the sound of them actually doing it). The late-night version is not censored.

Tex Avery MGM Cartoons:
Variation: In a Screwy Squirrel cartoon, the squirrel is chased by the dog into a pitch-black cave where loud violent noises rage. Squirrel steps out into the light, telling us "Sure was a great gag, folks — too bad you couldn't see it!"
Tex pulls a variation in two other cartoons. "What's Buzzin', Buzzard?" concludes with a live shot of a fully cooked steak that was shown earlier (this was made in WWII, when meat was being rationed), while "The TV Of Tomorrow" shows the very sexy girl that was shown earlier as well. Both were presumably shown again through audience requests.
In "One Ham's Family", one character warns the camera not to follow them into a room because the fighting inside "is entirely too gruesome to witness."

As a general rule, you should never trust a strange woman offering "Puff-Puff", as this sort of thing happens in more than one Dragon Quest game, and the result is never pleasant. In Dragon Quest III, the Puff-Puff is administered not by the girl who drags you to her house, but by the girl's extremely manly father, and in Dragon Quest IX, the girl uses a pair of sheeps' butts.

Used during episode 6 of the K-On! anime, when Mio trips over a microphone cable and gives the entire auditorium a very clear view of her striped blue-and-white panties. This is shown in the 4-koma, but in the anime, the scene cuts away to a blue-and-white striped bowl of rice. Also, almost everytime Mio hits Ritsu, it cuts to a closeup of something else in the room, and then back to Ritsu, now with a Cranial Eruption.

Used in Negima! Magister Negi Magi:
Negi, possessed by the magic of The World Tree in the Mahora Festival arc, gives Asuna a very passionate kiss. Just as it's implied that Negi starts to slip a little tongue in, we cut to a peaceful sea-side view with a cute turtle (Tama from Love Hina) in the foreground. "Everybody please wait for a while. Talk for a while".
In the "Magic World" arc, when Jack Rakan starts to sniff and taste the panties of Fate's minions (He was doing it for a very good cause! Really!), we see a panicked Konoka carrying a picture of that same sea-side view in an attempt to censor the scene, screaming that there are children reading the manga.

The special ability "Devour" cut to a scene of a peaceful meadow with a disclaimer about sensibilities, rather than show the character consume the monster. When the move is successful, a sound bite of something gruesome happening out of sight played.

In the Captain Underpants books, the Flip-O-Rama chapters begin with a warning that the chapter contains graphic violence (each chapter being called "The Incredibly Graphic Violence Chapter") and that the reader is best advised to skip the chapter. In Wrath of the Wicked Wedgie Woman, it goes a step further by warning the reader that the chapter is so violent it is mandatory to skip reading it and they will have to spank themselves eleven times if they do try to read it! Also, in a later book, the scenes get so violent that a four-year-old witness is made guest artist, with his grandma providing the narration for that chapter.

Playing Katawa Shoujo with sex scenes turned off brings in pictures of stuff to replace them. (For instance a sex scene in Shizune's route is replaced by a picture of cantaloupes.) This can create some Bathos in Hanako's route. She has finally come out of her shell enough to show you the burn scars that cover the entire right side of her body...only for the game to suddenly cut to a photo of shrimp. Grilled shrimp.

Another live-action example with the sound intact; according to IMDb, the original Japanese cut of Dawn of the Dead (1978) had the film freezing on the frame prior to any gore scene, with the sound playing through, and having the film jump back into motion once the offending moment passed.

In episode 30 of Sgt. Frog, it cuts away from Giroro being stretched in a body-sculpting aid/medieval torture device to cute, fanservicey shots of Natsumi. The equivalent chapter of the manga has the same gag but instead censors it with a single panel full of nothing but speech bubbles and painful-sounding onomatopoeia.
In chapter 50 of the manga, during a black-out in the base, Giroro beats the crap out of Keroro for squandering their invasion budget and, at one point, hits him with "an attack no manga can express!"

Appears early on in The Wallflower anime, where, e-hem, certain scenes are replaced with a picture of a pretty flower on a meadow. As the sounds in the background get more and more gruesome, the flower starts spinning.

In the YuYu Hakusho manga, at the conclusion of the Sacred Beasts arc, Kuwabara tricks Yusuke into thinking that Keiko and Botan were killed by the zombies that attacked them. Upon learning that they're really safe (though not before freaking out), Yusuke is implied to give Kuwabara a savage beating (even for him) for his twisted little joke, while the panel cuts to a picture of a kitten and the caption "We'll hold for a while as Kuwabara gets his head handed to him".

In AaaaaAAaaaAAAaaAAAAaAAAAA!!! – A Reckless Disregard for Gravity, a base-jumping game about almost hitting buildings (kind of like a gravity-powered Burnout), has an unlockable level which is just a voice telling you relax. The game has a lot of unlockable sections like this... and one that subverts it by trying to invoke unnerving mental imagery instead.
